📄 Abstract
The rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transformed educational practices and learning environments worldwide. Prospective teachers are expected to possess adequate readiness to utilize AI technologies effectively in teaching and learning processes. Digital learning engagement has also emerged as a crucial factor influencing academic success and professional preparedness. The present study aims to investigate the levels of Artificial Intelligence Readiness and Digital Learning Engagement among prospective teachers and examine the relationship between these variables. A normative survey method was employed, and data were collected from 300 prospective teachers studying in Colleges of Education. Standardized scales on Artificial Intelligence Readiness and Digital Learning Engagement were used for data collection. The collected data were analyzed using Mean, Standard Deviation, t-test, ANOVA, and Pearson's Product Moment Correlation. The findings revealed that prospective teachers possessed moderate levels of Artificial Intelligence Readiness and Digital Learning Engagement. Significant differences were observed with respect to selected demographic variables. Furthermore, a positive and significant relationship was found between Artificial Intelligence Readiness and Digital Learning Engagement. The study highlights the importance of integrating AI-based competencies into teacher education programmes to enhance digital engagement and professional preparedness.
